Measuring just 5/8" in diameter, this lamp doesn't take up valuable space, but is still twice as strong as standard 10.0 UVB bulbs. Ideal for large habitats, these lamps emit beneficial UVB light up to 36" from the surface of the bulb.

Reptisun T5 HO 10.0 UVB bulbs emit UVA (30%), UVB (10%) and full spectrum visible light, and are used and recommended by zoos, veterinarians and top reptile professionals worldwide. Use only in lighting fixtures rated for T5 HO (High Output) lamps.

Ideal for large habitats with the following reptiles: Bearded Dragons, Uromastyx, Monitors and Tegus, other desert species of reptiles.

This lamp provides UVB, UVA & Visible light for your reptile:

UVB: Reptiles need UVB for vitamin D prodction and calcium metabolism. Without UVB, reptiles can develop Metabolic Bone Disease in 6 months or less. This lamp, along with proper temperatures, will enable your reptiles to make vitamin D and process calcium from their diet.

UVA: Reptiles and amphibians can see things that humans can't. UVA is part of the rainbow

UVA: Reptiles and amphibians can see things that humans can't. UVA is part of the rainbow of colors that reptiles can see. UVA helps to increase activity levels, appetite, and reproductive behaviors. Without UVA, they are color blind!

Lamp Distance: Refer to the back of your lamp's box for optimal UVB emit distance (15W - up to 30"). Glass and plastic filter out UVB; there should be no glass or plastic between tha lamp and your reptile. Fine mesh blocks up to 50% of light and UVB. This should be taken into consideration when determining lamp distance. The T5 ReptiSun HO is designed for most reptiles housed in terrariums that are 18" to 30" tall. Always have lamp at least 6" away from your animal. The optimal distance from T5 HO lamps to the animal is 18-36", depending on the lamp.

When To Replace Your Lamp: This lamp will provide your animals with beneficial UVB for a period of 12 months when used 10 to 12 hours per day. Record date of first use of lamp and replace after 12 months.

Awesome but

The Reptisun bulb came in great condition but would recommend putting fragile stickers on the box so it won't be carelessly dropped by the delivery men.

Great for bearded dragons

By Laura from Maple Shade, NJ

On December 20, 2015:

This bulb fits in the light hood I purchased for my arcadia light, great that I didn't have to buy a whole new hood. My latest order arrived sooner than it said. The prices on this site are very good and, with shipping, cost less than my local pet stores.

Good Job!

By Philip from Arcade, NY

On May 12, 2015:

Pet Mountain did an excellent job and the product was received well packed and un-damaged. All the lamps lit on a test run. I am sure my daughter's pet "Dragon" Delilah will be much happier now!

Incredible service

By Sandra from Texas City, TX

On August 26, 2014:

I ordered several items, including the long 46" UVB bulbs for a bearded dragon. They arrived last week, very well packed, but unfortunately the two long light bulbs were in pieces. I called customer svc, and Gina had replacements shipped out to me ASAP via FedEx, along with instructions to repackage the broken ones for FedEx pickup (so a breakage claim could be filed). Yesterday I recalled, hoping the promised replacement bulbs truly would arrive. Gina once again assured me, via tracking, that I would see them. They came late yesterday afternoon, intact. Beardie (Puff) was delighted to have his light back on! I have ordered from Pet Mountain a number of times in the past, and find them to have incredible values and incredible service. Whether ordering or after, they just can't be beat! (PS, thanks Gina, for the great help).

We use these for our Bearded Dragon and are extremely happy thus far. Knowing the importance of proper lighting we won't skimp when it comes to Stubby's well-being. Pet Mountain has earned a new customer who will be back. Price was great and shipping extremely fast and bulbs packaged extremely well. Couldn't ask for a better online experience.

Very pleased with this T5HO

By L. Catherine from La Plata, MD

On October 13, 2013:

This bulb fits the 36" T5 HO fixture. It is so bright, and really brings out the colors in my water dragon and the plants in the vivarium. The packing was excellent, no breaking of this very fragile product. Shipping time was great. I will definitely order this again and use pet mountain.

Great UV Bulb, great price

By Melissa from Chicago, IL

On September 24, 2013:

I needed a T5 UVB bulb for my new light hood. I was very pleasantly surprised with this bulb. It puts out a lot of light as well as providing UVB. Petmountain shipped it quickly, had the best price, and wrapped it very securely for shipping. I'm very happy with my purchase and when I need a replacement I'll be back for more.
